HARDEST WORDS TO SAY
Sometimes the hardest things to say are also the most important. It doesn't matter how much it scares you to do so, it's finally time to be honest.

- post as your character.
- Others go to RNG and roll numbers 1-22 then respond setting up a scenario.
- Respond and have fun!

01. I DON'T LOVE YOU ANYMORE
Unfortunately, you can't keep lying to your partner/friend/family anymore. You just don't feel the same for them anymore.
02. I WOULD KILL YOU
The person who means so much to you has done something completely unforgivable and now it's time to make sure they know where they stand. You would kill them if you ever got the chance.
03. I LOVE YOU, BUT...
A bittersweet love confession. You know you love this person more than anything, but you're not sure you can give them what they need.
04. I DON'T TRUST YOU
No matter how you feel about this person, you really can't trust them anymore.
05. SACRIFICE
You're going to sacrifice yourself, for the person you're talking with or for the good of all humanity. You want them to know the reasons and that there's no stopping you.
06. TROUBLE
You're in trouble and you might not make it through. You need to let at least one person know how you feel before it's too late though.
07. CRIME CONFESSION
You did something you weren't proud of and now it's time to admit it.
08. DEMONS
We've all got our demons and we've all got our own personal nightmares we have to face, but this time? You can't hold it all back.
09. I'M PREGNANT
... Now's not the best time for it maybe or maybe you're just nervous how your partner will react, but they need to hear it.
10. BETRAYAL
You've betrayed this person and you have to tell them the truth, no more running from it
11. CHEATED
You've been unfaithful and it's time to tell your lover.
12. BROKEN
That's it. You've had it. You are entirely broken and tired of everything.
13. AFRAID
Something has you deathly afraid and you need to talk about it.
14. HELP ME
You need someone to help you, bad. You can't do it alone anymore, you've tried.
15. I'M SORRY
You said something or did something horrible and now it's time to ask for forgiveness.
16. YOU WERE A MISTAKE
Sorry, but whoever you're talking to was the biggest mistake of your life or maybe it was just something you did together.
17. NOT WHO I SAY I AM
You're so far from who they think you are, you need to finally tell the truth.
18. LET'S RUN AWAY
You want to just get out, leave everything behind and be with this one person for the rest of your life.
19. ASHAMED
Either you're ashamed of something they have done or something you did, either way you need to bring it up.
20. CAN'T REMEMBER
The person standing in front of you looks so happy to see you, so relieved, but how do you tell them you can't remember a thing about them?
21. HOW COULD YOU
You don't understand how they could treat you like they have, do what they have done when you've done nothing but be good to them.
22. YOUR CHOICE
Either choose an option from above, mix and match, or make up your own idea.

No, but. I don't think that love, or, pity, is about owing.

[ but you didn't have to keep loving me, he thinks, frowning around the tines of his fork and sizing Tavros up from behind his sunglasses. i would've given up. ]

I think you got a better idea than most normal people do about what this shit's about.

[ nom. nom. ]

Maybe, but, I think that I just think about, what is important to me.

Yeah, well.

[ and there goes the remainder of that tiny piece of cake. ...maybe he'll have seconds. kid doesn't eat enough anyway. ]

You got good priorities, I guess. Too bad it ain't contagious.

[ He helps himself to another slice without much guilt. That's all centred around something else. ]

You're wrong about that, but, we're having a nice night so, I would like to enjoy that and not, talk about this.

Yeah.

[ ...okay, yeah, cake time take two. he nabs a second slice, maybe slightly bigger this time, and digs right in. ]

We can pop a DVD in or something if you want. [ --!!!! THE FIDUSPAWN DVDS ] But first I should probably clean up in there or something. It's like Hurricane Strider blew through there, definitely not wheelchair accessible.

I need to shower anyway, so, if you need to clean then, you can do that then.

Perfect.

[ slowly exhales. hell yes, he got this. no one will be any the wiser. except for himself. and that's all that matters. ]

[ You are the most insecure thing aren't you. But he's just going to shrug and try not to think about what Dave would need to hide because it's not like he's cared all that much when he's left his mess around before.

But he'll finish his cake before shower time happens. ]

[ Dave only gets halfway through it before giving up. too much eating, can't handle. the wine he can finish, though, and he does and then stands, smoothing his shirt down and loitering around and generally trying to be casual. ]

So. Requests on movies? I'm thinking something badass so we can just blow all the awkward and all the warm fuzzy bullshit right out the window so there's nothing but awesome for us to roll around in for the next week.

Since we watched, Fiduspawn earlier, you could pick the movie this time. I don't really have any requests. [ Gonna shower like a boss. ]

Sweet, I got the perfect one.

[ but he doesn't name it, he just dumps his paper plate and crams his hands in his pockets, loping off to the living room as casually as humanly possible. oh yes. he has got this. he has completely got this. ]

[ SHHHHSHHHHHHSHHHHHHH showering time. And soaking in the bath feeling a little better about the whole situation. ]

[ Dave too, once he's successfully put the Fiduspawn discs back where they came from and popped in his go-to Awesome Film: Starsky and Hutch.

what, it's like his Con Air. only it's only ironic awesome, not actually awesome, but whatever. they're doing it, they're making it happen. this is salvageable. he might even be able to pull off the pretending-to-yawn-and-stretching-his-arm-behind-the-date maneuver without getting headbutted, if he's lucky. ]

[ He changes into his pajamas and sets his work clothes aside to clean, toweling off his hair and horns.

But here he is. Scooting into the living room. ]

[ by then Dave's already donned his typical solo sweat pants for sleeping in attire, made popcorn and dragged the remainder of the wine over. the lights are dim and the shitty bromance movie is on and Dave pats the seat on the couch next to him. ]

Saved you a seat.

[ Bad movies are like your aphrodisiac. But Tavros hops onto the couch and pushes the chair off to the side. ]

[ hell yes they are. as soon as Tavros sits he pushes play and settles into the couch, dragging the popcorn bowl up between them. he probably won't eat much of it, but hey, you can't have movie night without popcorn.

...yeah he doesn't even give it ten minutes before he casually tries slipping his arm around Tavros. he's a loser and he sucks. ]

[ u n s u r e.

More or less. Tavros starts at the touch and turns a little, leaning away as he does so. It's not a headbutt, it's not a bite, but he's not ready. ]

[ damn. okay, too soon, maybe. he moves his arm back, along the back of the couch and off of Tavros' shoulders, and just leaves it there for the time being, eyes straight ahead at all times. like he doesn't notice, or doesn't care if he does.

no big deal. ]

[ This movie is kind of cute in a humans and their boring non-animated cinema kind of way. Tavros helps himself to popcorn and the wine.

Mmm. Fizzy bubbles.

Maybe he should stop. Because drinking is bad idea when he's upset, he's getting really tipsy. His tolerance kind of sucks. ]

[ and Dave is noticing that's happening, yes. which is partly why he's pretty much stopped drinking altogether—more for Tavros. more wine, less popcorn. he'll work on getting rid of that, even if his appetite is shit and he's eaten more today than he probably has in the past year or something. ]

[ It's not long before there's a high brown flush to his cheeks. There's no popcorn left and he's still got a full glass there and it would be a waste to pour it out and being drunk is kind of a nice feeling. He doesn't have to think about all the things that were bothering him!

His head is just resting against the back of the couch now. ]

[ well golly gee goodness! would you look at that. Tavros is fucking toasted. Dave finally turns toward him and raises an eyebrow, shifting that arm he's still got back there to nudge him a little. ]

Wow, dude, you really went at it with that wine. Think I might have to cut you off.

[ His head lolls lazily to the side, eyebrows raising slightly while a lazy smile spreads across his face. ] Uh... Yeah, I guess.
